Post-op Cleo

Our vet took off EIGHT lumps/tumors that we either knew, or she suspected to be, mast cell tumors. After discussion with the oncologist, we had opted to do little local removals as opposed to the giant wide excisions they normally do for these tumors. Otherwise, she would be Skinless Pug. She's already Hairless Pug.


she really looks like a kid goat


I like to believe that the smaller excisions hurt less, too.

5 on her back/hips, 2 on her neck, and 1 on her inner thigh



begone, damn mast cell tumors!


Cleo also had a cracked molar removed during surgery, and our vet discovered a urinary tract infection. FABULOUS. what next. Little puglet was so dopey afterwards she was just a little wadded up bundle of sleepy pug. She may have gotten Supreme Shnerglage.




Deedee played the part of pug-nurse. She was surprisingly gentle with her older sister.
